About
In trying to rectify the agnostic scientist in me with the obsessive-compulsive Christian, I had to confront my entire existence. Religion had permeated my life to the point where I rebelled against every social and religious norm.
If I was ever going to believe in God, what attributes must I possess?
My science brain ushered me into the Bible from a historical and archaeological perspective. I craved proper epistemology in answering the God hypothesis. If God was indeed real, and he indeed spoke our universe into existence, then it must be supernatural.
I began to focus on teaching tools employed by a creator from within the dimension of time I am trapped in. If God indeed exists, he must be outside of how humans experience time.
Rivers became my classroom. Whenever life became chaotic and the waters were raging, God directed me beside the great rivers in forty-five countries spanning five continents. The journey of a thousand miles for me began beside the Delaware River and the Brandywine River valleys in southeastern Pennsylvania.
This entire book is about the mercy and grace of a loving creator on display in the life of his very stiff-necked child. The words are mine alone. This is my story; this is my song.
I pray the contents contained in my testimony may help one person going through a raging river episode in life to be still and know that God, through Jesus Christ, is in control. You are loved by the living God.
I am old now. My life is one of hard truths replacing the easy lies that permeated my existence for many years. God is redeeming the time in my life. Please join me, and if this helps you just a little, give God all the praise. I know my redeemer lives. In Christ's service, JB.
The road goes on forever, and the party never ends. Until the rivers meet the seas, be still...
